I saw the label myself, on tv.
Warning on umbrella (collapsble, folding) stroller:
"Remove child before folding stroller"

I have to confess to be one of those folks who broke that rule frequently 25 yrs or so ago.
Baby is sleeping- so it is much easier to hold the top of the handles while 'breaking' the bar that holds them apart with the other hand while baby still sleeps in the stroller. There was a button that needed to be pressed to unlock the bar. Once you raised the center a bit,it would stay unlocked.
Then hold the baby in one arm, and while holding the handle in the same hand as your bag of groceries, [the same side that is holding the bag of baby-crap like bottles, diapers, etc] your knee can push that bar up to finish folding the stroller.
I hope they are better designed today- but I can see how a company might want to cover their ass by telling folks to do it differently.

Folding strollers?
*Folding* strollers?You mean that I didn't have to keep buying bigger vehicles to fit those full size strollers in?
That double stroller was huge!
I think they make folding double stollers. Umbrella style.
Well this puts a whole new light on things.
Does your wife know you did this?
I thought you were going to tell me you just picked the baby up, wrapped in his partially folded stroller.
I guess now I can too.
My favorite warning is still the one on the Superman costume. "Caution: Suit does not enable the wearer to fly."
I was kidding about needing the bigger vehicles.
Actually we did have a folding double, but it wasn't an umbrella type.
It was a double "long" as opposed to a side by side and each seat reclined. I think it cost me over $200 and that was 18 years ago.
Something like this:
That makes it too hard to get them in the overhead storage when flying.

I don't get it. Are they saying 'no nailguns' or 'no hammers' -- or 'only use on roofs'?

Don't let Stevie Wonder use your nailgun.

Sounds like good advice to me.
The alternative sounds somewhat counter-productive.
But think how much your kids have cost you since!
Looks like a tank. It would be great for running down little children.
